When it comes to gift-giving, for me, few things rival the joy of sharing a good book. And if the gift itself has “gift” in its name? It is double the charm, right? Whether you’re searching for a meaningful present or making your own wishlist (because, let’s face it, we deserve a treat too), this list of books with “gift” in the title checks all the boxes. From captivating novels to non-fiction and picture books, these books help you in gifting great reads!

Of course, there is always one of my favs – The Gift of the Magi by O. Henry (not in the list below though as I have mentioned it many a time on my blog). Each of these titles can be easily made into an experience, ready to be unwrapped and cherished. Perfect for your bookworm friends or as a thoughtful token of appreciation, books truly are gifts that keep on giving.

What do you think—are there any on this list you’d love to unwrap? 😊 Or any other books with ‘gift’ in the title that you think will make wonderful gifts?

While this week’s theme for Top Ten Tuesday is books I would love Santa to give me, and yes, I would love any of these books. I looked for books that are giftable and have the word ‘gift’ in the title as well.
